IMO, it should be for impeachment, but censure is a good start. It won't go anywhere, of course, because the Republicans run the government. But the press is reporting it, voters are watching and drawing their own conclusions. Link below:
"Wisconsin Sen. Russ Feingold, a longtime critic of the Bush administration, said he hoped a censure would cause Bush to apologize for the warrantless surveillance that he put in place on his own after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
"What the president did, by consciously and intentionally violating the Constitution and the laws of this country with this illegal wiretapping, has to be answered," Feingold said on ABC's "This Week."

I agree with you Jigs but that didn't stop the Congress from impreachment hearings against Clinton... Our elected officials are mostly a bunch of posturing partisan idiots.

in all fairnes, I was upset at the amount of time that the GOP spent chasing after Clinton.
an assasin would have been faster and cleaner way to solve that problem. As long as he took the Mrs. out with him.

Who said anything about Democrats? I'm simply pointing out what the Republicans, who are in charge of our government, who have run up a record deficit, consider the most important issues for this country. It doesn't really matter what the Dem's propose. The Republicans won't allow their ideas come to the floor for a vote.

| If the Dems are so dang smart, why did they lose the elction. And don't give that popular vote crap. If Gore or Kerry had won, in the same way, you'd have been shouting, "but we go by the electorial college. Everybody knows that."
